Hello,


I need to compare 2 instances of objects to see whether they are equal

    var2 = ''


Take care, this creates two *class* variables var1 and var2. For

Thanks for making me aware. I'll have to read more about classes in python... ( As you can see I'm still new to it ;-)

btw, this is the best list I've ever joined, very helpful and nice ppl.

Have a nice day!

class Test:
  def __init__(self, var1='', var2=''):
    self.var1 = var1
    self.var2 = var2


test1 = Test()
test1.var1 = 'a'
test1.var2 = 'b'


This creates instances variables var1 and var2 for test1 (shadowing
class variables).
